Goodbye Robert Redford

Yes, sad to say, Robert Redford has passed, he has gone over the great divide. He was one of my favorite actors and he directed a lot of great movies, too. He will be missed.

He was great. A man who could act. No steroids, no CGI, just a good old American actor who could hold a story together through his screen presence alone. There's no one like him in todays movies. I don't have any modern favourite actors. All my favs are from a bygone era.

So long Rob.

Sad to hear this news this morning . Loved all his movies , and even when he was on one of the Twilight Zone episodes. MG2

The Robert Redford movie that always stood out the most for me was Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

He and Paul Newman were quite the pair. I most enjoy RR in the movie, The Sting. RIP

He was great as the Sundance Kid.

My favorite movie with him was Out of Africa.
